Eggnog French Toast Cups with Cranberry Syrup

These Eggnog French Toast Cups with Cranberry Syrup are perfect for Christmas brunch. The flavors of cinnamon and nutmeg taste so ambrosial with the fresh, cranberry syrup. Add a sprinkle of powdered sugar and an extra bit of syrup before serving for a decadent treat that will have you hearing sleigh bells.

I love the idea of individualized servings of French Toast. There is no guessing how big to cut it and assurance that there will be enough for each guest to savor. More importantly, they look super cute and taste amazing!

Let’s talk about THAT SYRUP for a second. Nothing screams Christmas morning like the flavors of Egg Nog and fresh cranberry syrup. It is SO easy to make by gently boiling fresh cranberries with sugar and a bit of orange juice. Once thickened, the syrup is easily strained to remove any chunks. Hmmm…I don’t think I should ever use the word chunk while discussing food again. That is just too hard-hitting this time of the year.

Choose festive muffin cup liners to amp up the Christmas cheer factor. I sent my husband to the store to buy said festive muffin liners and ended up with red and green metallic. Which would be fine for entertaining, but not the best for photographing due to wild reflective surfaces! Sending him to the store is definitely rolling the dice, but at least it keeps me out of this nasty cold weather. I sear it was like 60 degrees only a couple of weeks ago! No wonder its a chronic snot factory around here. My daughter seems to use my shirt as a tissue to motor boat at any given time. Usually, when I’m trying to leave the house for work.
